Titanium.
Titanium, sometimes called the space age metal, is a strong lustrous, corrosion resistant material with a silver colour. It can be alloyed with other metals to produce a strong light weight material for aerospace, military use, dental implants, sporting goods, mobile phones and jewellery.
Titanium was discovered in England by Martin Gregory and named after the Titans of Greek Mythology.
Tungsten.
Tungsten sometimes known as wolfram, is a steel grey metal, and is remarkable for its robust physical properties. It is remarkable as its high density of 19.3% times heavier than water and 71% heavier than lead.
The pure form is used mainly in electrical applications, but its many compounds and alloys have many applications notably, light bulbs and x-ray tubes.
Exciting new techniques have facilitated jewellery designers to use this extremely durable material.
Stainless Steel.
The corrosion resistant properties of this alloy was first recognised by a French Man in 1821, Fredrick Pierre Berth, but it wasn't until a century later, 1904 -11 when another French Man prepared alloys that today would be universally recognised as stainless steel.
Stainless steel has many uses and is in common place in the house hold. Cookware, cutlery, hardware and surgical instruments are to name but a few.
Stainless steel has been used for some time to make durable and inexpensive jewellery.
Silver.
